About the role

About BoWatt
BoWatt is building agentic requirements and system engineering software for manufacturing. We believe AI will reach PhD-level engineering capability within the next 10 years. This will unlock massive value across several complex manufacturing industries. Cars. Planes. Rockets. Factories. Chips. Medical devices. All will be engineered with agents.
 
We bootstrapped BoWatt to €500k+ ARR before raising our first round.
BoWatt is backed by tier-1 investors, including Atlantic Foodlabs, Buildery (CDTM affiliates), and Prequel Ventures, along with angels from Cohere and Luminovo.
 
You’ll join a small, exceptional team of startup builders, driven by innovation and execution.
Over half the team are former founders across DeepTech AI, psychedelics, and gaming.
We’ve studied and worked at top institutions and companies like Stanford, TUM, Google, EA, and YC-backed AI startups.
 
The role
Own outbound prospecting - cold email, LinkedIn, cold calling — to generate a qualified lead pipeline

Convert inbound leads into booked demos, fast and reliably

Build and refine our outreach playbook - messaging, sequences, positioning

Sit in on every demo to understand how we sell and what customers care about

Track your activity in the CRM and flag what's working and what isn't

Nurture long-term plays. Keep lower-priority accounts in motion with thoughtful follow-ups and signal-based reactivations

Work shoulder-to-shoulder with our Founder Steven — no layers, no bureaucracy

 
You
You are able to easily shake off rejection

You write clearly, speak confidently, and know how to get to the point

You're curious about what customers actually need - not just hitting dial quotas

You're energised by ambiguity, not slowed down by it

You want to grow into closing deals - the Account Executive path excites you

You are self-motived - hunger matters more than pedigree
